When channel format changes occurred as a result of an RTP re-negotiation the bridge was not informed this had happened. As a result the bridge technology was not re-evaluated and the channel may have been in a bridge technology that was incompatible with its formats. The bridge is now unbridged and the technology re-evaluated when this occurs. The chan_pjsip module also allowed asymmetric codecs for sending and receiving. This did not work with all devices and caused one way audio problems. The default has been changed to NOT do this but to match the sending codec to the receiving codec. For users who want asymmetric codecs an option has been added, asymmetric_rtp_codec, which will return chan_pjsip to the previous behavior. The codecs returned by the chan_pjsip module when queried by the bridge_native_rtp module were also not reflective of the actual negotiated codecs. The nativeformats are now returned as they reflect the actual negotiated codecs. ASTERISK-26423 #close Change-Id: I6ec88c6e3912f52c334f1a26983ccb8f267020dc
app_festival is an application that allows one to send text-to-speech commands
to a background festival server, and to obtain the resulting waveform which
gets sent down to the respective channel. app_festival also employs a waveform
cache, so invariant text-to-speech strings ("Please press 1 for instructions")
do not need to be dynamically generated all the time.
You need :
1) festival, patched to produce 8khz waveforms on output. Patch for Festival
1.4.2 RELEASE are included. The patch adds a new command to festival
(asterisk_tts).
It is possible to run Festival without patches in the source-code. Just
add this to your /etc/festival.scm or /usr/share/festival/festival/scm:
(define (tts_textasterisk string mode)
"(tts_textasterisk STRING MODE)
Apply tts to STRING. This function is specifically designed for
use in server mode so a single function call may synthesize the string.
This function name may be added to the server safe functions."
(let ((wholeutt (utt.synth (eval (list 'Utterance 'Text string)))))
(utt.wave.resample wholeutt 8000)
(utt.wave.rescale wholeutt 5)
(utt.send.wave.client wholeutt)))
[See the comment with subject "Using Debian
festival >= 1.4.3-15 (no recompiling needed!)" on
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+festival+installation for the
original mentioning of it]
2) You may wish to obtain and install the asterisk-perl
module by James Golovich <james@gnuinter.net>, from
either CPAN, or his site: http://asterisk.gnuinter.net,
as this contains a good example of how variable text
can be tts'd via asterisk, namely the examples/tts-*.agi
files there. It has been noted that the current expression
evaluation capabilities of asterisk are not best suited
for the generation and manipulation of text. AGI scripting
can be ideal for these sorts of needs. For simpler usage,
fixed, pre-recorded messages may be more amenable for your
purposes.
3) Before running asterisk, you have to run festival-server with a command
like :
/usr/local/festival/bin/festival --server > /dev/null 2>&1 &
